| 《·》: | 子墨子曰：“方今之时，复古之民始生，未有正长之时，盖其语曰‘天下之人异义’” | | Mozi said: As we look back to the time when there was yet no ruler, it seems the custom was "everybody in the world according to his own standard." | | 《》: | 居善地，心善渊，与善仁，言善信，正善治，事善能，动善时。 | | The excellence of a residence is in (the suitability of) the place; that of the mind is in abysmal stillness; that of associations is in their being with the virtuous; that of words is in their trustworthiness; that of government is in its securing good order; that of (the conduct of) affairs is in its ability; and that of (the initiation of) any movement is in its timeliness. | | 《》: | 范子因王稽入秦，献书昭王曰：“臣闻明主莅正，有功不得不赏，有能者不得不官。” |
